Our refractive quarterly updates report on performance in the US refractive market based on responses to our quarterly surveys of hundreds of US refractive surgeons. We track quarterly refractive procedure volume, laser center ownership, surgery locations, wavefront-driven LASIK procedures, microkeratome use by maker, procedure market share by laser or other technology, procedure fees and pricing trends, the installed base of excimer lasers, market share by laser manufacturer, and additional cross-tabulations. We provide data from previous quarters for trend analysis, and each quarter we offer a full-year forecast based on the latest information. Data is presented in color charts, graphs and tables with concise narratives emphasizing key data points. We also provide an overview summarizing the quarter’s results and trends.
US Refractive Quarterly Updates are published approximately 45 days following the end of each calendar quarter. The year’s four quarterly reports are sold as an annual subscription at a price of $4,400. A single edition of the US Refractive Quarterly Update may be purchased for $1,500.
